In news that will surprise no one, it's finally been confirmed that Ash London will be the next person to sip from 2DayFM's poisoned chalice.
The popular radio presenter, who has been an Austero mainstay for years, has been filling in on the Sydney breakfast show ever since Em Rusciano announced she was stepping down. London was tipped to stay behind the microphone in 2019, despite Hit Network bosses remaining tight-lipped for weeks.

Hit Network boss Gemma Fordham said in a statement she was thrilled Ash London was joining the 2DayFM breakfast team.
